Fancy yourself a Democrat? Do you contribute to your favorite candidates campaign fund online? If those two statements sound like you, take heed. The GOP has taken its mud-slinging, money grabbing ways online in one of the most deceitful ways possible. It has created fake democratic campaign websites in an attempt to collect your liberal donations!

The LA Times reported that at least 18 phony websites have been created by the National Republican Congressional Committee. Since the NRCC bought up hundreds of URLs many more sites could have been launched. These websites touted the achievements of the democratic candidates the url corresponded to. Yet, the fine print said otherwise. Donations of up to $500.00 were encouraged. None of this money would land into the hands of the democrats; it all went straight to the NRCC.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Arizona Democratic Representative Ann Kirkpatrick are two of the most prominent targets of this scam. But Incumbents weren't the only ones affected. Bill Hughes Jr., a Democrat from New Jersey, was targeted by New Jersey State Representative Frank LoBiondo's staff, according to Buzzfeed. Ironically, New Jersey's GOP is already under fire for its role in the Bridgegate scandal.

New Jersey's Atlantic County Democratic Committee is filing a lawsuit to get all of these sites removed and it wouldn't be a stretch to see the Bridgegate scandal wind up in the courts as well.

"As part of its fundraising efforts, since October 2013, the NRCC has recently engaged in deceptive, misleading and potentially fraudulent activity by establishing a website that is branded as the website of a Democratic congressional candidate," the complaint reads. "The website is seeking donations -- and thus seeks to profit in bad faith, through false, fraudulent and deceptive tactics -- from utilizing the name of a Democratic congressional candidate all in violation of [U.S. code]."

Of course the NRCC has gone on record stating that is has done nothing wrong. Its press secretary outright lied on CNN.

"I think that sites are clear in terms of the disclosure and the content where were coming from," NRCC press secretary Daniel Scarpinato said. "And I also think it's important for voters to get all the perspectives on the candidates. So just as a candidate is going to put information out about themselves, we're going to put out information about the candidate that they are not putting out that we think is important for voters to know."

Do you think this clever tactic will become commonplace? Or will lawsuits dampen the GOP's money-siphoning parade for good? Let us know in the comments section below.
